Pat is the guy with a record shop 

and John sells fruit but wants to be a cop 

and Paul deals speed in a celtic top 

but I'm just a drunk in a band 



Joe does tele-sales and martial arts 

and Jim pushes patients 'round the public parks 

and Nancy makes sculptures out of Hoover parts 

but I'm just a drunk in a band 



Danny puts the cones on the motorway 

and Donna dances tables in her lingere 

and Jerry, Dave, and Billy, man, they're putting on a play 

but I'm just a drunk in a band 



Pat is the guy with a record shop 

and John sells fruit but wants to be a cop 

and Paul deals speed in a celtic top 

but I'm just a drunk in a band 



I could be a soldier, I could drive a van 

Guide rivers of paint into little red cans 

Walk rich folks dogs bring 747s in to land 

I'm just a drunk in a band
